The days are getting shorter, and the sunshine is not as bright. Fall is here, and winter is quickly approaching – for SAD sufferers, that means it is time to ready our arsenals to combat the bleakness of the dark seasons. SAD stands for “Seasonal Affective Disorder,” and it describes a depression or malaise that descends during the colder, darker months. It is estimated that approximately 10 to 20 percent of the U.S. population experiences symptoms of SAD. Women account for around 75% of sufferers. Psychologists surmise that the phenomenon is caused by the change in sunlight, and is especially pronounced in parts of the country that get the least amount of sunlight during winter.

Vehicle break-ins are nearly epidemic in some parts of Sacramento. It is so common to see shattered glass next to a parked car that often vehicle owners will leave their doors unlocked with the hope that they can avoid a window repair bill. What citizens may not be aware of is that currently, the law in California is that burglary only occurs when a thief enters a vehicle with locked doors. A shattered window does not provide evidence that the vehicle’s doors were locked, and therefore the harsher charge of burglary may not apply. This loophole may render law enforcement unable to charge thieves with anything other than vandalism or petty theft. Senator Scott Wiener is attempting to close the “broken window burglary loophole.”
